Well I don't know where LewisF1@ got his or her crystal ball but dammit I want one. Up 17 places to P4. Crazzy moved up 6 positions to P6. And the top 3 places did not change with UltimoF1, Raziel and Faster, Maldonado on the podium.

I'm 99 points up on this time last year. Having basically fixed top 7 placings for every race so far surely helps.

On another note galliano is a mate of mine from work, last year he stopped changing his predictions after race two as he was on a 11 week contiki tour... He was doing a lot better this time last year than he is while actively managing his team this year.

Alright me mateys, here are our positions after Austria. Interesting race, lots of retirements, nice to see Massa do well. Poor Kimi is snakebit with these cars and I bet Ferd's wife is telling him "I told you not to go to McLaren"

I just scored 50 points for the Austrian GP & still climbed 60 places to 138th rank in the world!!

I also feel less people are playing each week. Kind of a bummer really. Perhaps next year there will be a way to encourage more participation. I've tried to figure out how to do a group PM reminder but it's a pain on this site so I haven't bothered.

Anyhow, thanks to those of you who do play along, it's a fun competition and it is kind of neat to see how we do for those of us who are in a few different pools together.

Numbers used to be a lot higher with a lot better player engagement when these competitions where in the main motorsport folder. To be honest I don't think most people even know these other sections exist.

Fun race in GB. Ultimo is going to be hard to catch. Crazzy moved up 5 places to P6 and poor Hammy dropped 7 to P14. Not a lot of moving around otherwise, top 5 teams stayed exactly where they were. Methinks the 2nd half off the season is going to present us with tougher choices the way Williams, Force India and Red Bull are developing. Lotus seems on paper to be strong but the results are just too hard to anticipate. And Kimi, well, sigh.....

Singapore aye carumba. What a crazy result. I only had 23% prediction accuracy. Best move was M-P who went up 4 positions. BTW I changed my team name to my user name in case you are wondering what I did with Ooga Booga.

Happy with second 👍 not sure why but I seem to do consistently better in the GP Predictor league than the pick 10 comp, I guess it just suits my style more. But that's why I like both! For two games where your basically guessing the same thing they are scored so different that they compliment each other well.

Thanks for the league updates jimmyj. Hope to see everyone back next season!

Ps out of interest did this work 👍? Can I actually use iphone emojis on the forum?

Same with me!

I don't know if this was the contributing factor but when making selections, the pictures of all drivers are visible whereas in PF1, it's just typing the names. Overall, selecting drivers in Autosport GP Predictor is much more visual & fun!

Thanks JimmyJ for timely updates. This competition is harder to score but more rewarding if the driver predictions are right in the term of bonus points.
